Announcement, those who follow short stories:   
   
I have a new one coming out! Into the Black is a little science fiction story that will come out as part of an anthology titled LIFTPORT, that centers around the concept of creating a space elevator.   
   
The book will be a Meisha Merlin release, is due out in October, and is edited by Michael Laine and Bill Fawcett.   
   
From what I understand, it will be a combination of fiction, non fiction, and essays surrounding the feasibility of this innovation.

Well, the latest word on the Liftport book - it's off press and about to hit the shelves and warehouses! As of today when I inquired, it could appear as soon as a week and a half!
